Advantages of laser welding machine
Here are some of the laser welding machine advantages:
- Versatility: Single welding machine can weld many type of material. It can also weld dis similar metal in many cases. Specially useful in welding hard to weld materials.
- Low distortion: The weldpool generated by laser welding machine is very narrow. Welding is done at fast speed. This reduces chances of weld distortion which is mostly caused by heat and thick weld-pool. Due to this laser welding is very useful in repair jobs for tools and dies. It is also usefull in steel fabrication.
- Fast Welding: This laser welding process is faster than other welding process. in some cases it can be 3 to 4 time faster for similar mig welding process. This save lot of cost and if machine is utilized efficiently it can cover its high investment in one year.
- Higher weld strength: Weld strength is high because the laser can penetrate deep inside the material and producing stronger joint.
- Limited heat affected zone: The welding process is fast and weld width is narrow. This help in containing heat to smaller area. and overall work metal temperature is lower than other process.
- Precision welding: Welder has more control over welding process causing precision welding
- Visible welding: As compered to other welding process. Welder can see work piece very well. So he have good control over welding process.
- High quality weld (Clean weld): The weld joint or weld pool is very small and smoother. This causes very clean and shiny weld. Which require less post weld grinding or buffing. In some cases it can be left as it is.
- Minimal post welding process: Since weld pool is small and high quality. Less buffing and grinding id required as compared to other welding process.

Disadvantages
- Low gap tolerance: Machine is not good for filling gaps. The parts the be weld should fit well. When fititng is good and gap is low it is the best welding process
- Higher acquisition cost: Machine is 10 to 20 times higher in cost as compared to other welding machine which can do similar work. However due to faster machine speed and better weld quality the high initial cost can be recovered quickly.
Who should buy laser welding machine
Here, you can find the laser welding machine applications in multi-industries:
- Automotive Industry: Automobile OEM are already using laser welding in many process. It is also getting popular in auto part manufacturer, because this machine can save labour cost. Many auto part manufacturer are adoping laser welding machine.
- Panel Manufacturers: Finishing is must for panel manufacturer. Laser welding machine offer faster finishing so it is becoming first choice for all type of panel manufacturers.
- Battery Manufacturers: In battery needs, a welding machine helps in better output.
- Medical components: In medical equipment, machineries and other welding needs, this machines is highly efficient.
- Sanitary Industry: All sanitization based products tools and machines gets good welding.
- Hardware Industry: electronics and hardware products like laptop, desktops, accessories and many other can be perfectly welded.
- Interior panel: you can weld the interior panel precisely using the welding machine.

Automatic wire feeder
All laser welding machine manufactured by Hindcam are equipped with wire feeder. The wirefeeder is automatic and speed can be easily adjusted. Automatic wire feeder helps to add metal wire in weld during a welding operation. With help of automatic wire feeder we can manage the feed rate of filer wire.
We can feed the laser feed rate, weld length, and wire-to-weld ratio in machine controller. It helps to maintain constant welding surface and low heat. It also helps to fill big gaps between metals and also helps to provide higher weld strength. Feeder function can be turned off when filler metal is not required.
Feed wire for laser welding are available in mentioned material:
- Steel
- Aluminum
- Silicon bronze
Welding Gases
laser welding welding gases are:
- Helium: This is best welding gas for laser welding. However it increases the cost of welding. Other gases are better option in many cases.
- Argon: Argon is costly and have some quality issues as compered to Helium.
- CO2: CO2 is cheapest but it gives poor welding quality
- Nitrogen: Nitrogen is better than CO2 and gives good weld quality. It is also one of the cheapest gas. In most cases nitrogen is favorite gas for laser welding
Welding result for different gases (Stainless Steel)
| Shield Gas | Plasma Suppression | Prevention against oxidation | Relative Cost | Flow Rate | Weld profile | Limitation |
| He | Excellent (24.5eV) | Good | High | 30-40 l/min | Deepest penetration | None |
| Ar | Low (15.7eV) | Excellent | Medium | 20-25 l/min | Wide | Plasma cloud reduces power density |
| N2 | Low (15.5eV) | Good | Low | 20-25 l/min | Deep | Embrittlement of certain alloys |
| CO2 | Low (14.4eV) | Poor | Lowest | 30-45 l/min | Nominal | Not useful for reactive materials |
| 20%He- 80% Ar | Good | Very Good | Medium | 30-35 l/min | Nominal | None |
